I generally try to wear goggles the least amount possible since I run really hot. These are a perfect alternative. I have not had a chance to board with these on, but tried these on with my gear and I think I’ll be wearing these every day it’s not dumping snow/raining. I decided to use them when taking a walk outside (85°F and humid), and I had no problems with sweat getting on the lenses. I also think there’s no way these are coming off my face, even without the strap. I will be getting a photochromic pair when they go on sale! Read more
So far, they've stayed put and don't interfere with my bike helmet. I'm really impressed how much sharper and clearer things are in lower light conditions. Overcast skies? Perfect. Still, in full sun they're dark enough not to cause squinting (which leads to headaches). Haven't tested them for glare reduction on/near water but I'd be willing to bet they're up to it. Can't wear them at night or near dusk (tried that, ha;), still need different shades for night rides. For me, they offer better contrast than black polarized lenses which is what I wanted. They aren't windshield size and frame my oval face nicely. Plus they look cool without screaming 'road cyclist.' Overall, Smith Embark meet my needs and expectations with extras like secure (removable) lanyard and side shields. Check out my pics. Hope this helps! Read more
Great American quality, the clearest lenses and blocks sunlight. The lenses are interchangeable. Nothing like it on the market. Very light. Read more
Awesome and worth every penny! Read more
These are my new favorite sunglasses. The shade on them is perfect for the Colorado Sun and the fit is exactly what I was looking for. Smith makes a quality product and these are no different. Read more
Very cheaply made product. Smith has always been known as a go to name for us mountain / ski area workforce. you can see where they press the lens in and it’s so cheap that the plastic is marked or scarred. I don’t know what happened I thought because I spent more money like a fool go for the name that you trust. .. like everybody else my eyes are very important to me and I think or at least hope , you really should pass this on to Smith or whoever bought the name Smith .., it’s very clear that I ended up with a made in Taiwan Smith product. Or the equivalent , and I really don’t like saying that . Needless to say, I don’t think I would recommend buying Smith product .. I know I’m nobody but I work at the ticket office at a ski area. I interact with approximately 3000 people a day. One of the things talked about what kind of gear do I need? And I try to help the guest out as much as I can. Maybe Smith can see that I should be wearing my glasses and be proud of them .like I thought I spent 150 bucks for .. maybe Smith can fix this with some new glacier glasses that are what I’ve always known as excellent quality standards that Smith is known for. I’m telling you these aren’t it , the plastics are cheap even with the frame and the lens plastic is cheap not very clear the optics are just not even good. This is where Smith shines. It should be excellent clear defined …. and they just pressed it in the machine and somebody wasn’t paying attention or didn’t… Maybe some kind of polarized glasses or at least send me a T-shirt 2xL It’s funny my goggles are Smith. They’re old school awesome. Trying to still be on your team ! Rob Kidd Loveland ski area . If you go to Loveland‘s website , you will see me as behind the goggles episode # 11 this will show you that I’m legit ….. so Amazon it’s up to you get my message to Smith , drop it in their lap hard :) 😎 SEND IT !!! 🏂. A little bit about me, I’m 56 years young, i’ve been skiing since I was 11, before that I wouldn’t call it really Skiing .. started snowboarding in the 80s when they first came out with the whole idea , So needless to say, I bought a few things here and there and I have always tried to make it a good turnout even a bad situation . If you don’t ask, you don’t get ! ! my brother throughout the years I’ve been pretty hooked up. Maybe just a lot of T-shirts 😂 It’s always been a part of the ski industry .. to throw a bone . Make customers happy . hospitality based industry . For your consideration, thanks, Rob Read more
